Artist: Anya Anderson
I was born in Russia and have been attracted to the visual arts for as long as I remember. I started in an art studio, then art school was my primary activity in my early years. My education is a BA degree in Fine Arts and I've been creating dolls since 2014. The biggest highlight was the NIADA conference in 2015 with E. J. Taylor for a Master Class and then follow-up classes in 2016. I got absolutely inspired and now dolls are my constant sentimental, poetic outlet.
My favorite material is Paperclay which resembles paper or a canvas surface and allowing me to enjoy the painting process as much as sculpting. Dolls for me are not toys. I imagine they are all part of a little theater, poetry, and three-dimensional painting at your house in an intimate setting.
I’m hoping to tell the story with every doll but at the same time to remain mystery of her origin for you to imagine.
